TeX-source-specials-mode

Hi,
the AUCTeX manual recommends using
(TeX-source-specials-mode 1)
since this is a global mode.
However, I think we'd need something like the following patch to make
this work. Unfortunately, this references even more stuff that is
undefined, so it does not work this way, and it probably also depends
on the Emacs generating the autoloads what will end up in auctex.el.
Does anybody have a good idea what to recommend to people that could
actually do the trick without loading AUCTeX?
If not, then we probably just have to do
;;;###autoload (autoload 'TeX-source-specials-mode "tex.el")
or something.

make install problem with auctex-11.81

Hi
I've just installed the latest auctex/preview, after removing the old
versions. Seems that make install doesn't copy the preview/images to
site-list/preview and I had to to it manually. Once done, it worked as
expected.

If this is the only problem I think we can keep it the way it is.

Some updates were checked in today. Major ones include:
* Christian's change related to BibTeX error parsing.
* texmathp is now aware of commented environments.
* Comment starters in verbatim constructs should be handled correctly
now during filling.
* Environment insertion in LaTeX mode was mostly rewritten and should
handly macrocode environments better now.
Please keep an eye on bugs and report them as you find them.

Images are now installed in the auctex/images directory.
preview-latex finds them by looking into the "images" directory below
the directory specified by the variable `preview-datadir'. The value
of the variable is determined and written into preview-latex.el during
build time. What is the output of `C-h v preview-datadir RET' in your
case after loading a LaTeX file?

Thanks for the reply. The preview-datadir is:
preview-datadir's value is
"/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/preview/"
In addition there is is an auctex/images directory.

Hm, strange. Did you pass special options to the configure script?
What's the value of `preview-datadir' at the end of preview-latex.el?
In my case it is
(defvar preview-datadir (expand-file-name "auctex" (file-name-directory load-file-name)))
What are the values of `lisppackagedatadir' and `packagedatadir' in
the file preview/config.log in the build directory? In my case those
are
lisppackagedatadir='(expand-file-name "auctex" (file-name-directory load-file-name))'
[...]
packagedatadir='${datadir}/emacs/site-lisp/auctex'
I hope with this somebody else can analyze what's happening. I am
currently a bit stumped because I don't know how `lisppackagedatadir'
is actually created.

Missing .elc files

Hi,

I am trying to install Emacs 22.0.50.1 together with AUCTeX 11.81 under Win NT. The first steps of AUCTeX installation ("configure" and "make") seem to run correctly. But the final step ("make install") fails with error msg:

Those should have been produced by running "make". So something seems
to have gone wrong earlier. Could you perhaps record the output of
configure and make and post it here?
